Hi, I’m Ilpo aka Resound. I’m here to help help you improve and succeed as an independent music creator and an artist.

I’VE GOT YOUR BACK

It’s a fantastic time to be making music. You have so many possibilities. That doesn’t mean it’s easy to succeed and thrive. We’re facing new kinds of challenges. Our lives are busy. It’s difficult to focus. We feel more confused than ever. I know all about it. I’ve grinded to a halt several times. But I never gave up.

I’m here to share what I’m learning through my own experience. I have 20+ years behind me in music production, DJing, mixing, mastering and expert work, but I’m still trying new things and learning every day. Below you’ll find some of the record labels and companies I’ve worked with closely.

LET’S GET YOU STARTED

I’ve got a whole bunch of stuff ready for you. Before you move further, here is my first lesson to you: Information without action is useless.

So enjoy your time learning. But then… It’s time to do the work. Figure out what works for you in practice.

Featured Book

Robert Greene: Mastery

Since discovering this book for the first time in 2014, I’ve listened to the audio version 3 times and also bought a hard copy. I constantly return to it for reference and inspiration. I think that’s good enough for an introduction!

It’s the best time of the year to invest in music tools. Some of my most valuable everyday workhorse tools are discounted. I am keeping this list short, sweet and basic. Only sharing a few of the most important tools that I have used extensively for many years with great results.

Last year marked my 20th year releasing electronic music as an artist.

I started dabbling with electronic music and made my first tracks already back in 1996. But I started releasing music to the public in the following year. Back then I was using tracker software to make music and I ran a tracker scene label called Rebound. We released more than 100 tracks as free downloads within a timespan of about 4 years.
